Guys : Tattoos and Piercings on women?

So : Yes or no?

I do have piercings but I'm not doing this because I feel I need approval or anything, just wondering what the male population happens to think of these things on women. I am highly aware that every man prefers something different in a woman, I'd just like to hear the opinions. GO!

    I'm not a guy (obviously) but my bf doesn't particularly like piercings, but it doesn't stop me from getting them :wink:
    No tattoos as of yet though.

    I'm interested in other people's views.

    It's a generational thing. I am old, at 55, and I don't like nose, eyebrow or labia piercings. My 27 year old son, happens to disagree with me and finds them attractive.
    I don't have any tattoos and I was in the coast guard and have been riding a Harley for 30 years. So, maybe a hidden well placed gem, I could handle.

    Not a guy, but i like women ;)
    piercings fit the person... if they have a personality to match. no personality, means your piercings are just awkward accessories

    I have.. 16 piercings incl my ears. (had to pause & count)
    3 tattoos.

    i don't like incredibly visible tattoos on women, unless they can really pull it off well. otherwise it looks sloppy, girls need to be pretty still! i can take all my piercings out & hide my tattoos very easily.

    Tattoos are hotttt on women and piercings are okay in the ear but otherwise not a fan of nose, lip or eyebrow piercings. If you have "private" piercings then good for you but it doesn't show in public so none of my business.

    I like them all. Lots or a few, many or none.

    and I don't like nose, eyebrow or labia piercings.



    Do you not like labia major or minora piercings? Cuz I think labia majora piercings are hot, but i'm really a fan of the labia minora piercings.

    I guess it is generational. When we were younger tattoos meant you were different, outside societal norms. Now they're mainstream. So I guess the true rebels don't get tattoos or piercings. I don't have any tattoos. I do have a wallet with photos of my family though. :bigsmile:

    I've had my center lip ring since I was 18 and I'm 35 now. I'd considered taking it out over the years, mainly because I was worried about getting "too old" for it, but my husband and friends have all said, "No way - it suits you too much". So I've kept it. It does feel really weird when it's not in, that's for sure.

    I have no problems with the piercings if they aren't overpowering the look. Too many and it takes away the focus.

    I don't like tattoos...period! I don't find them sexy. Quite the contrary actually. I find them to be a big turn off. That's me though.

    I love my tats and piercings, didn't get them until I was older. I agree some people can get carried away, especially in the face and such, but for the most part, I like....

    Usually they look ugly on women in my opinion. There are rare exceptions that they look really good in moderation, and I find tattoos to look particularly good on fit asian women.

    I love my tattoos and love love love them on men. I think that if they fit your personality then the guy will love them too.
    I have 5 but if I have my hair down you would never know and most people are shocked to find out I have them.

    As a girl I have asked this of many guys over the years and is the reason I do not have any , even though I have wanted a tattoo in the past, my desire has faded. No guy I have asked this question to liked the idea, not a single one, not during my 20s,30s and now my 40s, nope, I mention it and for a while there in my mid 30s I really really wanted one, even had a few drawn up in the parlor, but whoever the guy was with me at the few times I did manage to go in to a tattoo shop, they all would go to deep length to ensure they would talked me completely out of the idea, and tell me how much they dislike it, crinkling faces, gagging, acting like it was the worst thing in the world I could possibly do that I would be ruined one even said, then if I hesitated to not leave the place all out begging and pleading would ensue that if I cant resist to make sure its descrete and small. So I finally gave up, dont want to turn off a guy completely, so figured I can let them buy me jewlery instead lol, its something I can keep and change up. I know some guys out there might love them on women but this is just speaking for all the guys I have met as friends or dates and it could be a generation thing too, or just they couldnt see me with one. But , It was a unanimous NO!

    I think the only piercing I like on a guy would be the tongue haha. I relate a lot of piercings on guys with my gay friend so maybe that's why hahaha. Kissed a guy with a lip ring once, was interesting to say the least but I don't think it made me find in particularly attractive because of it.
    Tattoos on the other hand can look hot, but it depends what it is. Not a fan of tribal tattoos!

    It's just your circle. I run in several totally different circles. One of them hates all tattoos. The only reason they let me in their group is because I'm smart and successful, so in their face. LOL. When they talk about people with tattoos they get angry, and they'll talk about how they're losers. I just am like, Uh, what? And, they shut up. LOL. It's funny.

    In other group, they think tats are so hot. And, they all have them.

    So, it just depends.

    I like small tats say on the shoulder, butt or ankle. I've seen some ladies sleeved out and don't find that particularly attractive. Same with piercings...a few is ok but too many not so much. But it is totally up to the individual.

    Depends totally on the person to me, some look good and some just look tacky. Definitly nothing on the face!

    Tattoos are ok. Just not too many. Love a girl with a nose piercing. Something about that is just hot!

    I personally love tattoos especially on men, seen a few nice ones on women,just dont like them to be too big or out of proportion. My own daughter has 3 tattoos which are well done and look nice on her then she also has the back of her neck pierced (that neck piercing I dont care for personally on my own child, its a Mom thing), I think as far as why most guys have not wanted me to get a tattoo its that maybe they have a certain perception of me in a certain way stuck in their brain and my getting any piercing or tattoo would alter that for them, so maybe I am to stay angelic, pure and innocent forever in their eyes (lmfao) JK! I think people with either piercings or tattoos are certainly creative and fun loving adventurous people, and yup Ive seen crappy tattoos as well, my niece got hers while drunk and from a street vendor at the beach, umm its the worse thing I have ever seen. Should prolly of planned better, oh wait she didnt plan at all lol.

    i posted earlier saying i have 16 piercings.. just to clarify.

    i have two noserings (which just look like one really, they're next to each other)
    and two liprings. the rest are hidden/on my ears.

    i'm not like... hellraiser.

    some people go overboard & don't think about their piercings/tattoos before getting them. i plan everything. i'm symmetrical.

    Smart. I have a nose piercing but it's a small gem .. so small that most people don't even pick up on it. and a small bar in my eyebrow.

    Personal preference. I like ear piercings but no tat's or other piercings (especially the tongue and more personal regions)... Then again I am a pretty conservative person. As for me, I have no tatoos or piercings of any kind and plan to keep it that way.. Nothing against those who have other tastes.
